Others? Like who, for instance?

Like Mary and the other Saints. As you know, Apostolics argue that praying to Mary, etc., is the same as one of us asking for prayer from a friend. I am forced to deny that explanation since I have read too many of these prayers that ask for specific supernatural things, NOT from God, but directly from the Saint him or herself. I don't ask my friends on earth to grant me supernatural requests, but that is the common practice for Apostolics. :) So, I can only conclude that the prayer is actually TO the Saint, and NOT TO God.
